Adopting an intuitive, yet rigorous approach, this work provides extensive coverage of nonlinear systems and control theory. Student-friendly language, an abundance of detailed, worked examples, and progressively more sophisticated mathematics make the text appropriate and accessible to a range of student interests and levels. This edition extends coverage of input-output stability, feedback linearization and small-theorem, and adds coverage of passivity approach, back stepping control design, sliding mode control, numerical construction of phase portraits, comparison principle, comparison method, input-output linearization, differential geometric approach, extended linearization and over 100 new problems.

From the Back Cover:

This best-selling book adopts an intuitive, yet rigorous approach. It provides extensive coverage of nonlinear systems and control theory. User-friendly language, an abundance of exceptionally detailed, worked examples, and progressively more sophisticated mathematics throughout, make the piece appropriate and accessible to a range of reader interests and levels.
FEATURES-

Builds in mathematical sophistication from chapter to chapter.
Adopts a very precise theorem-proof format for presenting the fundamental notions of stability and asymptotic analysis for nonlinear systems — but uses user-friendly language, enlivened with many examples and remarks.
Covers the basic elements of Lyapunov stability in a separate chapter.
Covers topics ignored by other similar texts, e.g.-
averaging.
single perturbation
center manifold theorem.
NEW—reorganizes content into three distinct parts-
Part Icovers nonlinear system analysis.
Part II discusses feedback systems.
Part III considers feedback design.
NEW—expands coverage of-
input-output stability.
feedback linearization.
small-theorem.
NEW—adds coverage of-
passivity approach.
back stepping control design.
sliding mode control.
numerical construction of phase portraits.
comparison principle.
comparison method.
input-output linearization.
differential geometric approach.
extended linearization.
Features problems that range in difficulty from simple drill problems to advanced (research-level) problems.
NEW—adds over 100 new problems.
